Dick


Thanks to Jereme Smithey for the images

My buddy Dick rode his first Trials event at Ginders Ranch in Sylvia Tennessee a few weeks ago, put on by B&J Racing. Here we see him negotiating a creek section down in the bottom of Big Barton's Creek, and avoiding a rock the size of your trash compactor. Some guys (Scott Hale, for instance) would just as soon use this particular rock as a sort of a berm.

Our Dick rode well and finished the day with a total of 43 points. He hadn't ridden a motorbike competively since he moto-crossed a Husky 175CR in 1977 outside Des Moines Iowa.

The last pic is of his grand-son Ryan trying to give our Dick some moral support. Anyone with any Trials riding experience wll see the subtle humor in Ryan's signage. A 22 oz. Lion Stout to the first e-mail to me or comment to the blog with the correct answer to the riddle of the inuendo...........

Admittedly, I wouldn't have known that answer but I would like to lobby for a prize for guessing what was on the back of the sign. That, after all, took some psychic talent.

That's easy, everyone has a number 3 plate in that class so Ryan could be rooting for any number of riders. There's no humor in "Kawasaki Rules". Go Green! I'll take the 22 oz. Lion Stout in a frosty mug. C-ya in Dickson.

Good answer there Caulkboy, and I emphasize the "boy" part. Leave us an e-mail address and we'll get together so's you can gargle with your prize.

I did attend that event but I may have had a little help with the answer. My email addy is bsepter@comcast.net . Bring all your limbs back from Illinois.
